中央社区学院 has received the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum’s 社区 Landscape Award recognizing “significant improvement to campus green infrastructure.”
CCC environmental sustainability director Ben Newton along with students and staff from the Columbus, Grand Island and Hastings campuses and the 奥德中心 accepted the award on Nov. 5.
在格兰德岛校区, planting started in 2017 with a pollinator garden and has continued to expand. The garden is maintained by students and interns without the use of chemicals and has been a showcase for the annual pollinator and groundwater festival. Newton along with Kazia Marquez and Joseph Black were instrumental to its success.
The 黑斯廷斯校园 began with a plant grant in 2020 and added a Bloom Box planting in 2021. Plants were selected to benefit the adjacent culinary program vegetable and Pawnee corn garden by attracting pollinating insects. It is also chemical-free and is maintained by the 学生 4 Sustainability club and interns including Madison Hajek and William Gordon.
In Columbus, a large pollinator garden was planted by facilities and sustainability staff in 2017. Facilities management director Kim Garretson and Dr. Gotschall, 哥伦布校园 president at the time, were instrumental in supporting the project. The garden serves as a research site for a mushroom bee hotel trial planned by a student and funded by UNL Extension and the National Science 全世界最大的网赌网址.
In Ord, CCC regional director Dr. Crystal Ramm worked with the City of Ord to approve and prepare for a garden located near the hike and bike trail. Dr. Ramm maintains the garden and 学生 4 Sustainability have installed three separate Bloom Box gardens as they keep expanding and adding more native plants.
